Hi Team,

It appears that NBU 6.X does not BMR protect for IA64 bit client, but supports x64 client. However they both are 64bit, Can anyone throw some lights on this difference in support. So its only the Itanium architecture that causes difference or we any anything else?

Its Itanium architecture that causes difference.

BMR today does not support win client configuration running on Itanium HW. For example, EFI configuration is one of the item that BMR does not parse and configure on Itanium based system.

Thanks.

Only for Win and Linux clients.

BMR supports HPIA 11.31 client restore.

Thanks.
